FAQ

Generally, to prove product liability you must prove that an inherent defect or misinformation within the product caused the damages claimed. In other words, the plaintiff must prove that the product was inherently defective and that the defect in the product has caused injury or damage.

Product liability is a doctrine that gives plaintiffs a cause of action if they encounter a defective consumer item. This doctrine can fall under negligence, but it is generally associated with strict liability, meaning that defendants can be held liable regardless of their intent or knowledge.

Product liability is one part of tort law that holds companies accountable for a defective product when it causes harm to another person. The defect is often the result of negligence when designing, making, and selling a product. Successful product liability claims rest on showing that: The company acted negligently.

To successfully sue for a defective product, you need to prove that: The defendant designed, manufactured, distributed or sold a defective product to the consumer. The consumer used reasonable care when using the product. The consumer was injured due to the defect in the product.

All parties may be strictly liable if the Consumer Protection Act 1987 applies to the supply of the product. For example, if a product is faulty, then the liability for any harm caused by the product lies ultimately with the manufacturer but could be commenced against any distributor, supplier or retailer.

A toy box was defectively manufactured – the hinges were not installed properly on the lid. If a child is playing with the box and the lid closes too quickly because of the defective hinges, it can cause serious injuries to the child.

Product liability law is a legal framework designed to hold manufacturers, distributors, suppliers, retailers, and other entities accountable for injuries caused by defective or dangerous products. This area of law ensures that consumers are protected from harm and can seek compensation if a product injures them.

A product defect is any characteristic of a product which hinders its usability for the purpose for which it was designed and manufactured. Product defects arise most prominently in legal contexts regarding product safety, where the term is applied to "anything that renders the product not reasonably safe".

Reporting Consumer Products Begin by filing a report at .SaferProducts or call their hotline at (800) 638-2772. They will ask you to provide detailed information about the product, the incident, and, whenever possible, photographs of the defective item.

Methods to Ensure Complete and Correct Destruction of Failed Production Shred or crush your defective products. By shredding or crushing the failed or expired products, you ensure they can no longer be sold or used. Incinerate your defective products. Recycle your defective products.
